Me First! Be Empowered

EMPOWER YOURSELF - BE FIRST

"Me first!" sounds so selfish, doesn't it? But how can I show up if I don't start with me? Empowering me first simply gives others the courage to show up too. I'm always inspired by people who showed up: the athletes, the graduates, the everyday heroes....

Be-ing means just that, showing up. To be or not to be is always the question.

The 'be' answer is always the same.

Be Willing, Be Grateful, Be Resilient

Being means moving out of our comfort zone so we can move to something higher and better. Here are a few helpful tips and essential oils that can be effective in pushing us forward out of our comfort zone into our true power.

BE WILLING,NOT RESISTING

Fear: If you are resisting moving forward in life, consider you are living in fear. Fear lives in the FUTURE. It is something that hasn't happened, yet. We make it up. It may be based on how people treated you, how you treated yourself or were victimized in the PAST.

Oils to move out of the past and future and stay present:

Forgive

Motivate

Wild Orange

Lack: Lack lives in the PAST experiences. Someone taught you, and you believed you weren't enough, didn't have enough, couldn't be enough. Whoever taught you that belief also lived in LACK, the past. A present is being present. It is where everything really happens. Your entire reality is based on whether or not you show up for what is happening in your life, today. If you are focused on everything that never was, You will never have anything. What are you willing to give up to live in abundance?

Stay focused on the present. That's where all the PRESENTS are. Maybe you live with no oranges on the table. But there is always something in your life that shows abundance.

Oils of Abundance:

Magnolia

Balance

Citrus Bliss

The Gifts aren't waiting for you tomorrow. Your Gifts and opportunities are here, today.

BE GRATEFUL, NOT REGRETFUL

Shame: Are you your own bully? Are beating up yourself for attempting something new? Stop the bullying. Love a little. Today is a new day. Patch the bruises. Salve the wounds. Forget the stories.

Make peace with your bully. Be your own best friend.

Whisper

Serenity

Cheer

Humiliation: Being vulnerable can be humiliating. It's a risky business to turn on the lightbulb and show people who you really are and what you believe in.

Oil for courage:

Amavi

Arborvitae

Jasmine

When we want to be loved by others more than ourselves, we give up our own self love to get approval from them. You are making a safe world for everyone by showing up.

Create a place that lets you be you. Show up for you. Be vulnerable.

Be that secret someone who you keep locked in you heart. Be you. Empower yourself.

Be first.
